I love soggy cereal...

Despite the title, this post is not about eating soggy cereal, although I am. Quickly, let me explain. I let my cereal sit in a bowl of milk for a few minutes before I eat it. I hate crunchy cereal. The crunch reminds me of the too familiar sound of dying grasshoppers underneath my husbands shoe. Yes, I know this is a stupid thing to relate cereal to, but I can't help it. We've killed so many grasshoppers in our house that every time I hear a crunch it grosses me out. Seriously!

Anyway, the whole point of this post was to tell you that I did it again. I called the Endocrinologist this morning to see if they could get me an appointment any sooner than June 15. It worked. She got me an early appointment for next Tuesday, June 7. I am beyond thrilled with my appointment changing skills. It's not that I wasn't satisfied with my last appointment change, but it landed on a day and time that I was supposed to be in my Summer Statistics class. I really didn't want to miss a class, so luckily there was an opening before then at a time that does not interfere with anything I have to do!

Today is Tuesday, and we are SUPPOSED to have a phone interview with a lady from Angel Adoption. We've had the appointment scheduled for two weeks (basically after I found out that I have PCOS). I'm scared that if I do get pregnant that it's going to end in another miscarriage, and I don't want that. I don't want to live in fear that I could loose my child. We've talked about adoption on and off over the last six months, but the reality of it possibly happening didn't occur until my ultrasound a few weeks ago. I don't know if we'll end up talking with the lady or not. When I set up the phone meeting for today, I was expecting to have to wait almost three months before I could see the Endocrinologist. Everything moved so quickly that I am beginning to wonder if we should wait it out to see what the doctor says he can do for me.

Well, I hadn't planned to mention the adoption thing, but it happened. So there you go. There's the latest update.

About Me

I'm a 24 years old foster mom to three kiddos ages 3 and under. Not too long ago I felt that I knew what life was going to be like. I would have a full time job, 2 kids, a house, and two dogs. Like most things in life, we do not always get what we dream of, but I can say that I have been given more than I could ever imagine for myself. I'm here to share my experiences--the good, the bad, and the ugly--and in turn I hope to inspire you and bring hope to your life.
